I wasn't expecting to like the one with logo caps but they'd set it up with a blue petite facets at each end with a spacer and then the stopper. It hadn't occurred to me to wear the charms that way, it really did look stunning, all the pictures I've seen so far have had the charms in the middle
That is genius. Maybe I'll do that with my opalescent petites.
 
Thank you! I might just get clips or openwork charms on either side of the muranos so that they don't get stuck on the threads..

Yes that would look lovely and be sensible, they do drive you nuts when they get stuck :oh:

I've the same Muranos mixed with night sky charms. It's great to see other peoples ideas, gets you thinking of other options.
 
So I still haven't purchased the new open end bangle, but I did take advantage of the sale the US just started right now -- 30% off of any select retiring charm, 40% off of two select retiring charms, or 50% off of three or more select retiring charms.

I purchased whatever TT's were part of the sale that were still available online, a Disney charm even, and some other things:

- TT Key to My Heart
- TT Apple of my Eye
- TT Divine Angel
- Pair of Twinkle Twinkle clips
- Disney "Be Charming"
- Sweet Cherries (gift for someone)

I spent under $200. Not bad at all.

For anyone in the UK Summer Sale has just started too and there are still some left over charms from the Spring sale :smile:

I'd planned on ordering a couple of Honeysuckle shimmering droplets charms for my Rose bracelet and was very impressed to find them just under half price, also ordered the Poinsettia charm for my Xmas bracelet...............and a few more dropped into the basket that I couldn't resist.

I'm definitely going to take back my shell & seahorse pendant charm, just don't feel I can justify full price for it :no:

Nice sales haul :tup:

I was totally smitten by the open ended bangle when I tried it on. I couldn't resist anymore and ordered it online yesterday so I'll post pictures when they arrive.

I ordered a medium & large so I can fiddle about with a few charms on and see which size is best. They actually weren't much help in store on sizing which is unusual, they said depends how many charms you want to wear. The shop is always so full, they never really have much time with you

I don't think the US has ever had a sale like this before. We usually just have all the retired charms be sent to our Pandora outlets. I don't have one near me anyway. :sad:

Next time we have a free promo, I think I'll get the regular open end bangle and the starry sky clasp bracelet. I still don't have the starry sky clasp, but I think it'd look nice with the clips I just got. I got my pair of opalescent petites for $59 last month, and now I'm seeing I can get them for $50. I hate it everything I get goes on sale a few months later. Lol

That's why I almost always shop online. I can't stand the store in person.
 
I've never bought off the Perlen website and am contemplating my first order for some Pandora charms. Please reassure me this site is legit. Any negative experiences out there? TIA
It might depend where you live. Personally, I :heart: Perlen. I live in California, and it ends up being less than full price when I buy from them. The longest I've ever waited for a package from Perlen must have been 2 weeks tops. However, for some lucky reason it actually only takes an average of 7-10 days! Crazy.

I know it's infuriating when they reduce them and you've just purchased!

We don't get the offers like you do and only have ONE Outlet store in the whole county:graucho: ..............which always has a very, very long queue :sad: It seems we do make up for it at sale time though as the discount is usually 50%. In previous sales I've picked up some great buys on gold & two/tone charms but they are very limited this sale. The retired charms are discounted even more, I was really pleased as I managed to get a couple of two tone ball spacers in my bag before they sold out - £19 from £70 . I really like it when retired items come back into the sale, there are so many lovely old charms I missed..............you have to be really quick online as they sell out very quickly.

It makes me feel there's no point ever paying full price. I created all of my Xmas bracelet from half price charms :giggle: I'm not bothered if they are the latest out, it's more about what I like. I've just added the red poinsettia charm & the sparkling present and am really thrilled with both.

I prefer to buy online too, postage & returns are free so I tend to over order so I can try out what I like the best. Refunds do take awhile to process as returns go back to Brussels/France I think

I picked up some items at the sale. Got 4 items for 50% off. Two of the eternity bangles which came to $50 each. I've had one of these for several years and I love it so I got a 2nd for myself and one for a gift. Great quality. No problems with any stones (like I've had with chamilia). Also got an initial charm and chain.
